Abstract: Surfactant containing hydroxyl group (A), obtained by reacting one or more epoxide compound (I) with at least a hydroxyl compound (IIa) or hydroxyl compound (IIb), or with one or more amine compound (IIIa) or amine compound (IIIb). Surfactant containing hydroxyl group (A), obtained by reacting one or more epoxide compound of formula (I) with at least a hydroxyl compound (IIa) of formula (OH-R 2>-Y 1>) or hydroxyl compound (IIb) of formula (OHR 3>(Z 1>)OH), or with one or more amine compound (IIIa) of formula ((R 12>)(R 13>)N-R 4>-Z 1>) and amine compound (IIIb) of formula ((R 12>)(R 13>)N-R 5>(Z 1>)N(R 14>)(R 15>)). R 1>optionally unsaturated or aromatic 1-30C (preferably 3-12C)-heteroatom; X : O or carboxyl; Y 1>OH, NR 8>R 9> or optionally heteroatom optionally substituted by unsaturated hydrocarbon; either R 8>, R 9>H or alkyl optionally containing hydroxyl group; or R 8>R 9>optionally heteroatom optionally containing 5-6 membered ring; R 2>, R 3>optionally heteroatom containing one or more double and/or triple bonds or optionally (poly)oxyalkylene (preferably oxyethylene or oxypropylene optionally containing 1-30C (preferably 3-16C) aromatic groups); either R 12>-R 15>H or alkyl optionally containing one or more hydroxyl group; or R 12>R 13>R 14>R 15>optionally heteroatom containing 5-6-membered ring; Z 1>H or optionally branched or unsaturated heteroatom optionally containing a secondary or tertiary amino group; and R 4>, R 5>optionally heteroatom containing NH groups or optionally (poly)oxyalkylene (preferably oxyethylene or oxypropylene optionally containing 1-30C (preferably 3-8C) aromatic groups). Provided that the amount of the epoxide reactive hydrogen atom in the (IIa) and (IIIa), and (IIb) and (IIIb) is >= 1 (preferably 1.5) and >= 2, respectively. Independent claims are included for: (1) an etheralcohol compound (IV) of formula ((R 1>-X 1>-CH 2-CH(OH)-CH 2-O) m-R 2>-(R 6>) 2-m) and an etheralcohol compound (V) of formula ((R 1>-X 1>-CH 2-CH(OH)-CH 2-O) n-R 3>-(R 6>) 3-n); (2) an aminoalcohol compound of formula (VI) (((R 1>-X 2>-CH 2-CH(OH)-CH) o-N-(H) 2-o) p-R 4>(CH 2CH(OH)CH 2X 2>R 1>) q-(R 7>) 2-p) and an aminoalcohol compound (VII) of formula (((R 1>-X 2>-CH 2-CH(OH)-CH) r-N-(H) 2-r) s-R 5>(CH 2CH(OH)CH 2X 2>R 1>) t-(R 7>) 3-s); and (3) an aqueous formulations comprising at least one of (A), (IIa), (IIb), (IIIa), (IIIb), (IV), (V), (VI) or (VII) in a quantity of 0.05-5 wt.%. X 1>, X 2>O or carboxyl; R 1>optionally aromatic or unsaturated 1-30C (preferably 3-9C) heteroatom; R 2>, R 3>optionally heteroatom optionally containing one or more double or triple bonds or (poly)oxyalkylene (preferably oxyethylene or oxypropylene optionally containing 1-30C (preferably 3-16C) aromatic groups); R 6>optionally brached or unsaturated heteroatoms; m, p : 1-2 (preferably 2); n : 1-3 (preferably 3); R 4>, R 5>optionally heteroatom containing NH groups or optionally (poly)oxyalkylene (preferably oxyethylene or oxypropylene optionally containing 1-30C (preferably 3-8C) aromatic groups); R 7>optionally branched or unsaturated heteroatom; o : 1 or 2; q : 0 or amount of NH in R 4> of (VI); r : 1 or 2; s : 2-3 (preferably 3); and t : 0 or amount of NH in R 5> of (VII).
